Unfortunately, we don’t have control over where our energy comes from while we still live in AvB, but in preparation for leaving the bubble, some of our second years might already be considering the electricity company they want to use to supply their house. From a sustainability perspective, we wanted to quickly draw your attention to Vandebron.
They supply wind, solar and natural gas energy from small providers in the Netherlands. Their rates depend, of course, on your usage, but also on whether you get gas and electricity from them, or just electricity. Maria and I now pay €95 per month together, so it’s quite comparable to other electricity providers in the Netherlands— and you get to not contribute to climate change! Fun!
Their website is in Dutch, but quite logical to follow even if you don’t speak it fluently. Their customer service staff are happy to speak English with you, either through email or on the phone. For more information, be sure to check out their website here: https://vandebron.nl.
